Globetrender is the UK’s leading travel trend forecasting agency and online magazine dedicated to the future of travel
“We believe the future is knowable”
TREND REPORTS
Globetrender’s downloadable trend reports are based on qualitative journalistic research, expert interviews, observation of the changing needs and desires of consumers, strategic intuition, hard data from multiple sources and cross-cultural analysis.
We also partner with third-party market research companies such as YouthSight to provide fresh quantitative data on consumer sentiment.
We set our sights on what is going on in the early stages of adoption so that the information we deliver feels fresh and you have time to act on it. Equally, it is embedded enough that it is solid and reliable, not just flimsy future-gazing.
Out trend reports are read by thousands of travel industry professionals, as well as executives from a wide-variety of multinational corporations and consultancies looking for insights into the future of travel and consumer behaviour.
NEWSLETTER
Globetrender’s free weekly innovation briefings are read by thousands of travel industry professionals from around the world, as well as cool-hunting consumers and insight-seeking executives from a variety of multinational corporations and consultancies.
SPONSORSHIP
Many of our scheduled trend reports offer the opportunity for sponsorship – previous sponsors include American Express Global Business Travel, Cookson Adventures, Cirium and The PC Agency. Bespoke trend reports for internal or external use can be produced on request.
Globetrender’s weekly newsletter is also available to sponsor.
